Managed to get about 10 minutes listening time today. Diablo arrived this morning, but “THE WIFE” don’t know i purchased it yet, hence listening in secret. Hopefully break it to her this evening after i treat her to a favourite meal and will strategically put on a Movie she likes.

one thing I noticed. I think there is a bug in Apple iOS 15 on my iPadPro (USB-C).
If i turn on Airplane mode Apple Music stops playing after a few seconds. Which obviously stops audio into Diablo via Apple Camera Kit connection (USB-C version, not lighting).
Perhaps some one else can test this.

I do not have USB C on my iPad just lightning but I thought I'd check out what you said as I have yet to upgrade it to IOS 15 was going to today, but I got the same result using my camera adapter and Apple music. It stopped after 2 or 3 songs and now says I'm offline

Not sure what's up, gonna update to 15 and see today. I'm still on 14.8 BTW..

Thank you for checking. For me it only stops with Airplane mode, otherwise no issue. Even ok with Do not disturb activated. Must be iOS bug.

Here is my first Observation. Previously with Focal Radiance >> 4.4 balanced >>> Diablo (loaned).
I couldn’t increase volume past 11am even in Eco as was too loud. Regardless of Source.

now my set up is:
Focal Clear >> 4.4 balanced >>> Diablo

i can easy increase volume past 1pm. Can even do 12pm in Normal setting.

I’ve been really enjoying the Diablo the last month. Thanks @Sebastien Chiu for answering my questions before purchase. A few things I like:

• I can take my lcd-4s around my house for listening and they sound so good
• The Diablo really brought to life and increased the sense of space in Focal Stellia.
• The Diablo does a solid job with Campfire Solaris using IEMatch+.
• Carrying case was very helpful when I went away to hotel for the weekend.

This is definitely a keeper and has made it easier to slim down my amps and dacs to just this beautiful portable. I’m still amazed at the amount of power in this small device. I’ve had bigger and more expensive amps and dacs in the last few years that had way less power and didn’t sound as good.

Although I have Not had the Diablo very long I agree with everything you just said, personally I have never experienced an amp off this size that was capable of such Dynamics, yet still have the subtlety to listen to all kinds of music!

Waiting on my IEMatch+ as well,

Cheers!!

Does the sound change at al after a few hours run time?

I might say so, but it could be placebo.

I checked it right when I got it, I was going to run it for 24 just cuz,

About 5-6 hours later I checked it just to make sure tunesbwere still flowing and I noticed a difference. The top end had smoothed out nicely. It wasn't harsh mind you in the beginning but it was close! Much nicer the next day even!

Anyone using Apple music here. I noticed Michael Jackson Bad is labelled HiResLossless. It keeps stopping after a few seconds of playback.

I can certainly check it for you.

Hi. I mean the label on Apple Music.
Diablo LED turns white. It stops playing with this Album via Diablo. I will try re downloading it.
